With Donglai County and ten cities falling under Yang Rui's control, only fifteen of the thirty-six cities in Donglai County were not captured by Yang Rui.

However, after Yang Rui sent Wang Yupeng, Tao Yuanliang, Zhao Yan, Meng Liangde and others to lead a group of sixth- and seventh-order puppet warriors to the fifteen cities in Donglai County, they easily captured the fifteen cities in Donglai County, collected the star stones and resources above the ninth layer of the fifteen cities, and gathered them into Yang Rui's hands.

The wealth above the ninth layer of Donglai County is extremely terrifying, the number of star stones alone is as high as more than three billion, and other resources are piled up, countless, which makes Yang Rui excited, while entering the Bodhi space to cultivate and improve his own cultivation strength, while letting Xiao Tian transform the resources of the puppet tower into a powerful puppet warrior.

Soon, three days passed.

In the past three days, Yang Rui had easily broken through the bottleneck of the seventh-order star warrior with the help of the pure star power refined by the puppet tower, and was promoted to an eighth-order star warrior, and his cultivation strength had skyrocketed.

And Xiao Tian also manipulated the puppet tower's puppet array, refining the resources of Donglai County into countless puppet warriors, including five hundred seventh-order puppet warriors, four thousand sixth-order puppet warriors, one hundred fifth-order puppet warriors, and one million fourth-order puppet warriors, as for the puppet warriors below the fourth order, none of them were refined.

Now, puppet warriors below the fourth order no longer have much effect on Yang Rui, and Yang Rui doesn't want to waste time refining puppet warriors below the fourth order.

At the same time, Zhao Yan, Wang Yupeng, Tao Yuanliang, Meng Liangde and others were not idle in the past three days, but took the sixth- and seventh-order puppet warriors provided by Yang Rui to launch a fierce attack on Ningping County, which was adjacent to Donglai County, and captured the cities under the jurisdiction of Ningping County.

In just three days, except for the county seat, all the other cities in Ningping County fell under Yang Rui's control, and a large number of star stones and resources were gathered into Yang Rui's hands, so that the star stones and resources that Yang Rui had just exhausted were filled up at one time.

At this time, Yang Rui did not continue to cultivate with the help of star stones, but took the puppet warriors he had just refined, and rushed straight in the direction of the county seat of Ningping County.

Soon, Yang Rui came to the county seat of Ningping County with hundreds of thousands of puppet soldiers, released hundreds of thousands of puppet soldiers more than ten miles away from the county town of Ningping County, and rushed towards the direction of the county seat of Ningping County.

Feeling the movements of hundreds of thousands of puppet troops, the guards of Ningping County reacted immediately, and quickly sounded the alarm bell on the city wall, causing it to spread throughout the county.

Immediately afterwards, the strong and elite guards of the county town of Ningping County and the major families quickly rushed to the city wall of the county city, and looked at the puppet army outside the city wall, with an angry look flashing in their eyes.

"Everyone, according to Yang Rui's habits, it won't be long before Yang Rui will let us open the city gate and surrender, and plant a spiritual imprint in our minds, control our life and death, let us become his loyal minions, and fight the world for him, I don't know how you think we should respond to Yang Rui, whether to become his minions, or to fight against him to the end?"

Wei Jie, the county guard of Ningping County, looked at the patriarchs of the ten big families in the county and asked in a flat tone.

"Lord County Guard, the puppet legion under Yang Rui's command is very powerful, our Ningping County is not the opponent of the puppet legion at all, and Yang Rui resists to the end, we will all be wiped out by Yang Rui!

Of course, if the county guard is sure to block the puppet army under Yang Rui's command, we are willing to resist the attack of the puppet army under Yang Rui's command together with the county guard.

After all, after Yang Rui captures the county town, we will all be planted with a spiritual imprint, unable to control our own life and death and fate, and hand over the wealth of the family above the ninth layer, which is something we absolutely do not want to see!"

Seeing the calm look on Wei Jie's face, and there was no tension and despair on the verge of despair, Wang Yuan, the head of the Wang family, the second family in Ningping County, moved in his heart and said softly.

"I have been promoted to an eighth-order star warrior, and I am sure to resist the puppet army under Yang Rui's command and kill Yang Rui on the spot!"

As soon as Wang Yuan's voice fell, Wei Jie unleashed the momentum and coercion of the eighth-order star warrior and shrouded Wang Yuan and the others.

"Eighth-Order Star Warrior! It's great that Lord County Guard has been promoted to an Eighth-Order Star Warrior!"

"Lord County Shou has been promoted to an eighth-order new warrior, so we don't have to be afraid of Yang Rui!"

"That's right, with the county guard, we can defend the county town and prevent the puppet army under Yang Rui from breaking through the county town!"

“、、、、、”

Feeling the momentum and coercion emanating from Wei Jie's body, Wang Yuan and other patriarchs of the major families shouted loudly with surprises on their faces.

If it weren't for the last resort, they would be unwilling to surrender to Yang Rui and become Yang Rui's minions.

After all, Yang Rui's requirements are too harsh for them!

As long as they have a choice, they will not choose to take refuge in Yang Rui at all.

After receiving the support of Wang Yuan and other patriarchs of the major families, Wei Jie's face showed a faint smile, and he had a greater grasp of holding the county seat.

While Wei Jie and the others were talking, hundreds of thousands of elite puppet legions stopped thousands of kilometers away from the city of Ningping County, and Yang Rui rode a seventh-order peak star beast puppet warrior and slowly came to the city of Ningping County, shouting loudly: "I am Yang Rui, the master of the puppets, immediately open the city gate and surrender, I can spare your life, otherwise outside the city is broken, the rebels will be killed and all property will be confiscated!"

"Yang Rui, I am Wei Jie, the county guard of Ningping County, I advise you to immediately lead the puppet army under your command to leave the county town and withdraw from Ningping County, otherwise I don't mind taking action myself and killing you on the spot!" Wei Jie, the county guard of Ningping County, looked at Yang Rui with a confident look on his face and said.

"It turns out that you have been promoted to an eighth-order star warrior, no wonder you dare to refuse my surrender!

Yang Rui glanced at Wei Jie, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile on his face.

"I won't fight you alone! Who knows if you will be bad, if you have the ability, you can come to attack the city!"

Wei Jie glanced at Yang Rui, pondered for a while, and then rejected Yang Rui's suggestion to go head-to-head, and responded loudly.

After speaking, Wei Jie ordered to activate the star power shield of Ningping County to protect the entire Ningping County.

"I give you half an hour to think about it, and after half an hour, I will order a siege of the city, and all those who resist will be killed without mercy, and only the property will be confiscated, I hope you can make a wise choice!"

Seeing that Wei Jie refused to fight with him and opened the star power shield, Yang Rui frowned slightly, pondered for a while, and threatened loudly.

After speaking, Yang Rui didn't wait for the reaction of everyone on the city wall of Ningping County, so he rode the star beast puppet back to the rear of the puppet army and waited quietly.

Seeing Yang Rui turn around and leave, the guards above the city wall of Ningping County changed slightly, and their eyes flashed with a fine light, especially those who were strong and did not forcibly enlist in the army, and they even glanced at each other, ready to evacuate the city wall at any time, and did not participate in the war between the county town and Yang Rui.

Time passed like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, half an hour passed.

In the past half an hour, due to the suppression of the county guard and the powerhouses of the major families, none of the guards above the city wall evacuated, and all of them clenched their weapons and waited for the puppet legion to attack.

"Attack!"

With Yang Rui's order, hundreds of thousands of fourth-order and above puppet warriors immediately mobilized the star power in their bodies, waved the weapons in their hands, and rose into the air, overwhelmingly rushing towards the direction of the county town.

"Fire!"

Looking at the overwhelming puppet warriors, Wei Jie's face changed slightly, and he ordered loudly.

Suddenly, I saw only one star stone cannon arranged above the city wall, firing one after another, and one after another thick pillars of energy light flew out of the barrel of the cannon and bombarded the puppet warriors who were charging at the forefront one by one.

Boom, boom, boom!

In the midst of a violent roar, stout pillars of energy light exploded on the puppet warriors who charged at the forefront one by one, leaving clear traces on the puppet warriors' bodies, but they could not destroy the puppet warriors.

The puppet warriors who charged at the forefront were all sixth-order puppet warriors, with the combat power and defense of sixth-order star warriors, and they were not afraid of the attacks of the star stone cannon at all, and easily blocked the dense energy attacks.

"How is this possible! How can they block the attack of the Star Stone Cannon!"

"These puppet warriors' defenses are too strong!"

"The Star Stone Cannon is a powerful weapon that can kill a fourth-order star warrior with one shot, how can it not even break the defense of a puppet warrior!"

"The puppet warriors' defense is too strong to fight at all, and our county town is finished!"

“、、、、、”

Seeing that the pillar of energy light emitted by the star stone cannon was blocked, the faces of the guards above the city wall changed drastically, a look of despair flashed in their eyes, and they couldn't help but exclaim loudly.

When the guards of the city wall exclaimed, hundreds of thousands of puppet warriors quickly flew to the vicinity of the city wall of the county city, and one after another attacks containing terrifying star power bombarded the star power shield of the county city frantically, making a violent roaring sound, which was the violent trembling of the star power shield.

Click! Click!

With a crisp sound, the star power shield could not withstand the huge attack power under the countless terrifying attacks, and shattered, turning into starlight in the sky, and disappeared into nothingness.

Immediately after, hundreds of thousands of fourth-order and above puppet warriors flew into the city wall and launched a fierce attack on the city wall guards.

Most of the guards on the city wall were second-order star warriors, a small number were third- and fourth-order star warriors, and only a very small number were fifth- and sixth-order star warriors, facing the attacks of hundreds of thousands of fourth-order and above puppet warriors, they couldn't resist at all, and instantly became the target of slaughter.

"Run!"

"The city is broken, everyone run!"

"Run for your life!"

“、、、、、”

Seeing that his companion was easily killed by the puppet warriors, one of the city wall guards let out a frightened cry and immediately turned around and fled towards the city, not daring to engage the puppet warriors at all.

Seeing this scene, Wei Jie, the county guard sitting on the city wall, flashed a fierce light in his eyes, the star power in his body surged wildly, the sharp sword in his hand flashed with starlight, and a series of sharp sword rays shot out from it, cutting the puppet warriors in two.

Immediately after, Wei Jie roared angrily, his figure flashed rapidly, and the sharp long sword in his hand continued to swing out, destroying the puppet warriors one by one, and quickly emptying an area.

"Your opponent is me!"

Seeing Wei Jie so fierce, Yang Rui's eyes flashed with fierceness, and he immediately picked up the Five Elements Sword in his hand and galloped towards Wei Jie's side.

"Die!"

Looking at Yang Rui who was coming quickly, Wei Jie's eyes flashed with cold light, the star power in his body surged wildly, the sharp sword in his hand flashed with brilliant starlight, with a sharp edge, and stabbed straight towards Yang Rui's body, a picture of wanting to assassinate Yang Rui on the spot.
